My new home defense tool

CodyJ

I have a modified Remington 870.  I love that one.  I also have an old Mosin Nagant too.  Even has the bayonet for Zombie encounters. :)  

.and the best thing about that Moisin Nagant : surplus ammo is still available, though I don't know if AP or tracer is still around.

Haha! Thanks Tankerbuilder.

There's a drought here Karl so you will be fined by the water police for using that! lol

Better check the laws in yer area before using that.............never know......might be illegal to squirt someone without their permission.

Oh, not too worried about that, lol. I'm absolutely  SURE that I"d be covered under the "Castle Doctrine"!

I can also water the lawn with my firearm under local ordinances....

Not sure if that applies in this case...............

As for watering yer lawn: if ya ever do it on dry, hot days, make sure to do it on whatever day local ordinances say you can do it.

I know ya won't let go of it until they pry it outa yer cold, wet hands.......

My wife carries a Taurus Millenium Pro 9mm. It's ok, but has a really long trigger pull. I like a short pull.....don't read too much into that last statement.......

This is a great thread! I carry a full-size Glock 21 .45ACP myself, for the very reason that Green Thumb says he bought a shotgun - knock-down power. Plus, it's really easy to strip & clean after a day at the range. Ammo for that thing is getting a bit pricey, though.........

You'll shoot your eye out kid ;-)

We had a problem with car burglaries around here lately, and I felt the need to step up and get some home defense as well.  I think that this should adequately convey my intentions should anyone think they're going to steal my monogrammed cup holder...i'm sure there's a chapter on this baby in your book, Mike. I can lay down about a gallon in under half a minute with this big boy, You mes with the bull, you get the horns...

Ooooh ! Looks just like mine too .    T.B.

Aw !

   C'mon Mike . You aren't old  ,after all, my friends say I was an engineer on the ARK or

" Older than Dirt " with   9 Grand - Children and five Great- grands . Shoot , I am only 71 years and  five months old ! You are only as young as you think , until your body argues the point with you !

Yes, there is another Wyatt Earp quote up at the range in the same room as well. I do not know it verbatim, but it is something along the the line of "you must learn to be slow in a hurry". IIRC, Wyatt Earp had some sort of association with our department in the early 20th Century after he came to California.

Our range range staff has nice quote up at our main training range. "Speed is fine. Accuracy is final".

Have fun with your new toy Mike.

sweet shotgun m ike. i have a MOSSBURG wannabe which is a good gun if you don't have a lot of money and don't care about impressing others at the range. no offense. my indoor range allows shotguns and has a defensive shotgun class.i just carry a GLOCK 26 or 19 on my hip when home with HORNADY critical defense loads.

that quote is also attributed to wyatt earp.

Where'd the other 10 go?

My civilian range is outdoors and they don't allow shotguns or rifles with less than a certain length barrel. Plenty of traps to shoot at though.

Considering the things folks do on other social media, somebody is gonna be rich !

I never realized what a gold mine social media could be.

Thanks for the info. !

No concerns here either. I get along great with the neighbors and my wife and I have been married 30 years and also get along great. I can definitely see your point though GM.

Very true there GM. A simple bit of web searching will put these things together. But I am not one to make threats.

No the whole world does not know, only those who know you by your screen name.

I think it's worth pointing out to you fine gentleman a point.

A friend of mine learned this the hard way.

When you post a thread and show a weapon or two or three, the whole world knows, right?

If your wife files for divorce ( case of my friend),

your neighbor claims you threatened him, etc., their lawyer can and will put together a presentation about your dangerous tendencies.

And unfortunately we are no longer judged by our peers.

The Remington  870s that we have at work have a buffer in the adjustable M4 type buttstock.

Thanks, I was curious if anyone did have the buttstock buffer.

I agree about the pets;  lots better hearing, night vision and smell than a human will ever possess. 

Spruce, I beleive that my M3 has the buffer in the bolt assembly. I have not torn it down for awhile now as I have not had much time for any shooting trips over the past few years. Not mention the scarcity of ammo in all calibers here still. The stock is just a nice solid piece of resin/plastic with a rubber butt recoil pad. I have a nylon/velcro shell carrier on the stock that I had been using at work until it was no longer needed.

This is my "home security" that I had for my back yard camping while my house was being fumigated this past spring. Benelli & Walther

with dogs and cats for my alarms (hey, their senses of smell, hearing, and night vision is better than mine)

Thanks for starting an interesting thread 

I don't recall seeing this topic posted here since I joined the FSM foums.

Hope you feel more secure, but what in the world does this have to do with scale modeling?
